Arduino Obstacle Avoiding Robot

This is a robot that isn't hard to build and is awesome to show friends.

Step 1: Parts

you will need:
l293d motor drive shield
arduino uno
hc-sr04 ultrasonic sensor
two 1:120 gear ratio motors
a platform of some kind
different types of dupoint wires
a battery (9v preferred)
a servo

Step 2: Start Assembling

Attach the wheels to the bottom of my he platform.
attach servo
mount the sensor on the servo
mount l293 on the arduino
attach wires for the motors
attach servo to the servo port
solder wires into 5+, gnd, a4 and a5
connect 5+ wire to vcc on the sensor
connect a4 to trig
connect a5 to echo
connect gnd to gnd

Step 3: Add Code

you can make your own code for this or download it here

its project 4 mini robot
be sure to install the libraries :-)

Hi, you need to set up your libraries in the code. They define specific parts of the code. If you need more help please notify me :)
